China ADDITIONAL INDEX WORDS. Paeonia ABSTRACT. The pollen morphology of 26 cultivars of herbaceous peony (Paeonia L.) was examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Pollen grains of the cultivars were mostly subprolate to perprolate, tricolporate, or ellipsoidal in equatorial view, but rounded-trifid in polar view. The poles of pollen grains were mainly flat when viewed in cross-section and only a few appeared to have a circular or arc shape. In addition, the surface of the pollen grains was psilate, and the muri were partly or fully protuberant with a reticulate surface sculpture. However, the shapes and sizes of pollen grains as well as surface ornamentation varied significantly among cultivars with different chromosome numbers. The pollen grains from diploid cultivars were regular and full, and the reticulation holes were evenly distributed, while most of the pollen grains from triploid cultivars were empty flat shells with some heteromorphic pollen whose surface ornamentation was mostly rugulate-reticulate exine. The pollen grains from tetraploid cultivars were the largest although pollen morphology and surface ornamentation differed between Athena and Cream Delight. -
King of Flowers: Reinterpretation of Chinese Peonies in Early Modern Europe
Journal of the Southern Association for the History of Medicine and Science Volume 3 (no. 1) 2021 https://journals.troy.edu/index.php/JSAHMS/ King of Flowers: Reinterpretation of Chinese Peonies in Early Modern Europe Richard Zhang, MA MD Student, Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States Email: [email protected] Abstract This work argues that the introduction of Chinese peony variants into early modern Europe not only incorporated them into a new, systematic, and universalizing taxonomic body of knowledge, but also accompanied a narrowed translation of their uses that exemplified agnotology, or culturally-induced ignorance. Cultivated in China at least since the Tang Dynasty, both herbaceous and “tree” peonies traditionally enjoyed important medicinal applications and symbolic purposes there, in addition to serving as ornamental garden flowers. Yet, their introduction into Europe beginning in the late eighteenth century by naturalists such as Sir Joseph Banks saw their use confined, albeit popularly, to the latter ornamental use. This research draws upon classical bencao texts of Chinese medicine, early modern correspondence, and printed books to capture how different cultures may utilize and construe the same material objects in markedly contrasting ways. Additionally, quotes from early modern physicians such as Menuret de Chambaud and John Floyer help illustrate European confusion and disregard for concepts from the Chinese worldview such as qi, which likely contributed to medicinal understandings of Chinese peonies not traveling with the actual plants themselves into Europe. This work finally references lately-emerging pharmacologic literature on peonies to support biomedical inquiry into traditional medical materials worldwide, for the potential benefit of broader patient populations. -

ABSTRACT Anatomical and TLC study of three Chinese peonies were conducted to make a comparative analysis. Peonies (Paeonia suffruticosa (tree peony), Paeonia lactiflora (Chinese peony) and Paeonia veitchii (Chinese peony)) are traditionally used on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China. Recent studies have shown that the peonies have different pharmacological activities and clinical applications. To distinguish these three species of peonies and ensure the safety and effectiveness in their use, the microscopic characteristics and chromatographic profile of their roots and the corresponding powder were studied. Plant materials sectioned and stained and the raw powder were studied with an optical microscope using standard techniques in microscopy. The results of microscopic features and TLC were described and illustrated. The three species have different microscopic characteristics and TLC profiles, which allow us to distinguish them. -

David Fairchild, in company with P. H. Dorsett, made an extended tour along the northern coast of Sumatra and also spent some time in Java and Ceylon. Their itinerary included the Sibolangit Botanic Garden, near Medan, Sumatra, and the Hakgala Botanic Garden, Newara Eliya, Ceylon. The material collected came from these botanic gardens, from the markets of the native villages visited, and from the wild. It consisted for the most part of fruit-bearing plants, ornamentals, and leguminous plants of possible value as cover crops for the warmer parts of the United States. Breeders of small fruits will be interested in the numerous species of Rubus (Nos. 67592 to 67604; 67728 to 67740) obtained mostly in Sumatra. Sev- eral species of Ficus (Nos. 67557 to 67570; 67696 to 67705) from Sumatra will be tested in southern Florida, where already a number of these wild figs have proved popular as shade trees. F. A. McClure continued to work in the general vicinity of Can- ton, China, collecting plant material largely from the native markets of the neighboring villages. -

Reproductive Characteristics As Drivers of Alien Plant Naturalization and Invasion
Reproductive characteristics as drivers of alien plant naturalization and invasion Dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Natural Sciences presented by Mialy Harindra Razanajatovo at the Faculty of Sciences Department of Biology Date of the oral examination: 12 February 2016 First referee: Prof. Dr. Mark van Kleunen Second referee: Prof. Dr. Markus Fischer Konstanzer Online-Publikations-System (KOPS) URL: http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bsz:352-0-324483 Summary Due to human activity and global movements, many plant species have been introduced to non-native regions where they experience novel abiotic and biotic conditions. Some of these alien species manage to establish reproducing naturalized populations, and some naturalized alien species subsequently become invasive. Invasion by alien plant species can negatively affect native communities and ecosystems, but what gives the alien species an advantage under novel conditions is still not clear. Therefore, identifying the drivers of invasions has become a major goal in invasion ecology. Reproduction is crucial in plant invasions, because propagule supply is required for founding new populations, population maintenance and spread in non-native regions. Baker’s Law, referring to the superior advantage of species capable of uniparental reproduction in establishing after long distance dispersal, has received major interest in explaining plant invasions. However, previous findings regarding Baker’s Law are contradicting. Moreover, there has been an increasing interest in understanding the integration of alien plant species into native plant-pollinator networks but few studies have looked at the pollination ecology of successful (naturalized and invasive) and unsuccessful (non-naturalized and non-invasive) alien plant species. -
